I was torn on this posting. I’m not sure if it’s appropriate but I was sure I didn’t want to put it on Facebook so I figured CarFreeBrad.com was the best place.

My goal for this blog is to be as honest with you as I can as I struggle to live CarFree and this is all part of that struggle. I consider everyone who reads CarFreeBrad.com as friends, some of you I see everyday others I will never meet, but friends nonetheless. Many people have inquired as to details to pay their respects so I wanted to put them out there for those interested.

I’ve never been good at funeral/wakes, not like anyone is good, but I never know if I should go. Then if I go, what do I say, will I sound generic and insincere? Being on the other side of the things, it seems that a smile, hug and “I’m sorry for your loss” from anyone who simply wants to show respect for the life of someone you loved is perfect and appreciated.
